Decent game at Bournemouth, full round of Championship, league one, two and Scottish league tomorrow, back to wasting money on accumulators. Fleetwood to beat the Skates?

That was the normal concourse, Plumstead is in hospitality upgraded from block 31 so will be a posher experience. I've done Saints Bar a couple of times before, was easy to get served and nice pint in a proper glass, not sure what food they'll have on offer tomorrow though. Depends where you're parking, town centre probably nearest, I had some food in Mettricks Guildhall sq last weekend was excellent. You will also have access to the Saints Bar on the day which will open from 1pm and allow you to purchase drinks and food throughout in the Mick Channon lounge and will also be open after the match for an hour.

Going to be a really small crowd as well with whole Kingsland and Northam stands empty and a scattering of fans in the Chapel, bit depressing really. MLG will be hunting down directors in hospitality from the look of it 😆 I've been upgraded as well from block 31

How often have we won at Goodison last 40 years? How often have we won first game of the season last 40 years? Everton 2-0 Southampton, frustrated Hassenhuttl rues missed chances as sloppy Saints slip to defeat. We'll probably have a goal chalked off by VAR

Can I remind you we topped the league last season and got to Wembley, we might not be great but we're not as bad as some clubs

Unless I missed it during the shock of Ings news I didn't notice the team take the knee last night? I was in the ground so if they did do it must have completely passed me by.

That's about right I think, if you're not fully committed Ralph won't have time for you. I've not checked but Ings must have missed about 1/4 of our games at least last season , Ralph may be pleased to twist , get some money and see who we can get in.

They'd already sold quite a few in the Kingsland so I wonder when they'll get round to confirming that to those of us who have already purchased 🤔

Ticket office didn't have a clue did they. Plus I pointed out to them I had halfway line seats selected and no equivalent exists as centre blocks of Itchen are closed, they really couldn't be less interested, if the Kingsland is closing Saturday tell us now so we have a chance of moving to a decent spot not just what's left over on match day.

Loads left , they shaded out the restricted view from the start guess they just make them available once normal ones are sold, the new ticket website is even less user friendly than the last one but my guess is at least 900 left.

Was interesting listening to reactions at the game tonight, it seemed to be a shock especially the choice of club for Ings to join, if we have a bad start to the season I can sense fans really starting to turn on the ownership of the club.

I'd be surprised if we sell the lower 1800 allocation to be honest, I've been to Goodison about 20 times and can't think of any occasions we took more than that except maybe when Saints subsidised tickets to £10 end of season 2018.

They should really just offer a full refund as default and then up to us if we want to login again and buy a new seat, no football for 18 months then mess around fans like this, good to see some things never change

I don't for one minute believe they haven't completed work on the concourse, more like poor sales they can't be arsed to open 3 stands and employ agency staff on kiosks so will just squeeze everyone into two stands. Better be sorted by Saturday can't be doing queueing up to change tickets for that one as well

Yep email just came in, truly the most useless set up I have ever seen. Claiming work not completed on concourse , they only put tickets on sale the other day! Chapel stand was closed anyway, looks set to be a tiny crowd but why they are making everyone who bought in the Kingsland queue up before the game to get a new ticket in the Itchen is baffling.

Hesketh joining Eastleigh shock of the window so far, from playing in Europa league to non league shame to see his potential was restricted by injuries, could be a top player for them.

He could be one of the trialists, not sure what you would learn in a friendly against Salisbury though.

Some the tweets I saw after the final were ridiculous, but must admit I could see this song taking off this season, can you imagine the whole Chapel end on their feet roaring it out

It's a really mixed up subject, but continuing to associate themselves with BLM is the wrong thing to do, agree with you when you say thought they'd try something different this season, chance for a fresh start.

I think a high percentage of the abusive tweets sent after the missed pens were from accounts outside the UK? Not that sky and the like would want to highlight that, far better to continue with the message that we live in such an oppressive racist society.

At the England games at Wembley during the Euros they kept playing loud music until after the knee so whether the crowd cheered or booed it wouldn't be heard , probably did that after loud booing at Middlesbrough
